Hot on the heels of our hugely popular White Tea blends comes this offering that is made of an even higher grade of tea. Peony White Tea is made only from the finest tea buds and leaves plucked in early spring from Fujian province in China. These ingredients are steamed and dried soon after picking, ensuring that all of the health giving properties contained therein is intact. This white tea blend is smooth and ideal for sipping any time of day.

Steeping instructions:
Amount of water: 6 oz
Amount of Tea: 1 Flat teaspoon
Water Temperature: 180° F
Steeping Time: 4-8 minutes.
Note: Do not use boiling water for Green and White teas as they will burn and create bitter flavors.
A good way to guess water temperature without a thermometer is to bring the water to a boil, and wait about 30 seconds (for White tea) or 60 seconds (for Green tea) before pouring over the leaves.
White tea buds and leaves
It is said that it particularly hard times in China, poor people would serve their guests boiled water instead of tea. This would be described by the host and their guests as "white tea" and they would act as if the custom of serving tea to the guests had been performed as was usual. This gave rise to the use of the term "white boiled water" in reference to plain boiled water in the country.
